Isis, protector of sailors

In front of the church is the fountain called "Navicella", this fountain was built under Pope Leo X in the early 1500s, and is named after the small boat in the midst. It is believed that the "Navicella" is a vow to the Goddess Isis, protector of sailors, in gratitude for the salvation of a shipwreck.
